It worked smoothly
I can have access to the modem as long as I have cable plugged into eth port
I never knew what bridge option used for before this :-)
Now I have easy connectivity from the outside.
But I still have to do allot to have project Observer to work
Then how about people developing system like m0n0wall
Thanks allot for the big effort.
